That's pretty neat. I plugged in a few names to test it out.
This definitely hurts English as a Second language writers and people who post some photographs or images. For example @piedpiper is under 100 and he's a fairly smart guy, but he's posted some graphics.
I also see a preference for long posts, or am I mistaken there? My IQ comes out high and @cryptogee @steemship @firepower and @federicopistono are some others over 140. Long posts is what we have in common, I think.
It's important to be concise and make your words count; quality can come in smaller packages.
Definitely agree, and I created a relatively brief post showing that SteemIQ can be increased with well written sentences. I am of course going to perform more tests and see what works, what doesn't and refine the algorithm. Thank you for the input. I am also thinking about doing some rudimentary image analysis, and adding a weight on images.

This tool is awesome! I'm at 120. :P
I don't really follow PP, but i get the impression that most of the content he posts is actually embedded video.. (andarchy probably has the same problem).
TBH, ive always kind of felt that writers that do that should transcribe and post text in addition (there are ppl of fiverr that would do it fairly cheaply)... after all, the whole point of putting content on a chain is so that its not under the control of a central actor
